Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this sugar-free cheesecake sweeter?
Yes. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, add ½ teaspoon of vanilla stevia or increase the amount of monk fruit sweetener slightly.
What can I use instead of xanthan gum?
Xanthan gum helps stabilize the texture, but you can use guar gum or simply omit it if you don't mind a softer consistency.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely. Prepare the cheesecakes in advance, refrigerate for up to 2 days, and add toppings just before serving.
Is this recipe freezer-friendly?
Yes. You can freeze the cheesecakes for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
Do I need ramekins?
While ramekins provide the best shape and structure, you can also use any small microwave-safe bowl or baking dish.
